the cutest family in the world

o.k. so sometimes things happen that are just so cute and you didn't even plan it.

Tonight John and I went to the Orem vs. Timpanogos Game to watch Jen cheer... Here she is...adorable as usual.

When we came into the house Elizabeth was asleep on the couch with a movie on. Well... a picture is worth a thousand words..so cute, huh?

Baby girl in Middle School!

Whoa! Hold on a minute. My Baby is in Middle school? Do you know what that means? I am old. O.k. Yes...it is always about me.

Well here she is...ready for school. I love having her in my class this year. I have been able to teach three of my four children. It is a wonderful experience to see your kids e very day and to be a part of their education. I wish all mothers could have such an incredible experience. Thank you Meridian for giving me this opportunity.

so..here she is...my adorable little girl. And boy is she cute. Love her to pieces.

New baby

So this is quite a late announcement but we would like to welcome to our family the newest member. Stella (spanky, sparkles supreme, Joni) Slade. Yep...a puppy. I know the neighbors are going to hate it..having another little "rat dog" around, but we love her.

she has such a personality. Here is her picture. Cute huh?
